A crook had broken into a house in a really nice subdivision.   He was putting items in his bag when he heard a voice say, “Jesus is watching you.”  He looked around with his flashlight but didn’t see anyone.  He resumed putting things in his bag when he heard the voice again say even louder.  “Jesus is watching you!”  He shined his flashlight towards the direction that the voice came and saw a bird sitting in a cage.  “Hey,” said the crook, “are you the one that said that?”  The bird ruffled his feathers and said, “yeah, that’s right, I said that.”  The crook laughed and poked his finger through the cage.  Your cute little birdie aren't you?  “What’s your name?”  The bird leaned back out of reach of the crook and stated very proudly, “Moses.”  Ha, laughed the crook.  “What kind of crazy people would name a bird Moses?  The bird laughed back, “the same kind of crazy people that would name a Rottweiler Jesus!”
